Australian red cross’s ‘doing it tough’(bma349 assess.2)
Digital Monkey Creations is proposing ways for the Australian Red Cross to update their communication strategies to better engage millennials in their "Doing it Tough" fundraising appeal. They recommend leveraging social media platforms that millennials regularly use, like Facebook and Twitter, and focusing messaging on the issues that Red Cross supports rather than just the organization itself. By optimizing their online presence and learning how to communicate in a way that appeals to younger audiences, Red Cross can motivate more millennials to donate time and money to their cause.

Survey Questions
Definitions:
Community service- a project in which you would volunteer regularly and use your skills and knowledge. Community service (not political in nature) is work done by a person or group of people that benefits others. It is often done near the area where you live, so your own community reaps the benefits of your work.
Political service- often used to describe an action taken by a citizen to influence the outcome of a political issue.

Better world magazine july 2016
Scouting offers young people opportunities to learn leadership skills and values through fun activities and programmes to become active citizens. This document discusses various ways that Scouts around the world are making a positive impact in their communities through initiatives focused on issues like food scarcity, creating better learning environments, promoting peace and saying no to xenophobia. Examples are provided from Africa, including a food production project in Ethiopia, building a playground in South Africa, participating in peace talks in Kenya, and addressing xenophobia. The overall message is that Scouts globally are working to establish peace and make a difference through community service projects.

CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on Blockchain
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.

Cosa hanno in comune un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ?
ABSTRACT: A prima vista, un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ potrebbero avere in comune il fatto di essere entrambi blocchi di costruzione, o dipendenze di progetti creativi e software. La realtà è che un mattoncino Lego e il caso della backdoor XZ hanno molto di più di tutto ciò in comune.
Partecipate alla presentazione per immergervi in una storia di interoperabilità, standard e formati aperti, per poi discutere del ruolo importante che i contributori hanno in una comunità open source sostenibile.
BIO: Sostenitrice del software libero e dei formati standard e aperti. È stata un membro attivo dei progetti Fedora e openSUSE e ha co-fondato l'Associazione LibreItalia dove è stata coinvolta in diversi eventi, migrazioni e formazione relativi a LibreOffice.
